Ultrasound Assisted On-Table Management of Type III Endoleak at Endovascular Repair of Isolated Giant Common Iliac Aneurysm.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThis report presents the endovascular treatment of a large isolated common iliac artery aneurysm, focusing on the use of on table ultrasonography to characterise and treat an early endoleak that could not be defined by angiography alone. REPORT: A 58 year old man presented with an asymptomatic, large (13cm) left common iliac artery aneurysm (LCIAA) whilst being investigated for change in bowel habit. This was treated successfully via a percutaneous approach using left internal iliac embolisation followed by endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) with deployment of an aorto-uni-iliac converter system from the LCIA origin to the external iliac artery. A non-characterised endoleak at the end of the procedure was shown to be a type IIIb endoleak by application of immediate on table ultrasonography, allowing immediate supplementary targeted stent graft deployment to cover the leaking segment. DISCUSSION: The patient was discharged uneventfully and will remain on follow up. On table ultrasonography allowed both localisation and characterisation of an immediate intra-procedural endoleak and confirmed cessation of the endoleak with supplementary stent grafting and thrombosis within the sac.
conclusionsIsolated CIAA is rare, and endovascular therapy is appropriate for them, given that open surgery, whilst feasible, carries a high morbidity and mortality risk. Application of on-table ultrasound allows definition and targeted treatment of endoleaks, reducing the need for further intervention at a later stage, and thus also reducing the risk of continued pressurisation of the large sac post-EVAR till the next surveillance episode.
